If we play good, we deserve praise from Irish or Scottish and likewise if its the other way around. I care! Can't be fucked listening to some biased paddy the entire game 😖 Not when we should have a biased Jock, preferably Ally McCoist 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven’t lost a qualifier or Nations League game at Hampden since Belgium pumped us over 3 years ago. If we (conveniently) ignore the playoff against Ukraine and the euros matches against the Czechs and Croatia (which came with different pressures than a NL game or qualifier) then we should rightly be favourites tonight as we are with every bookie I have checked. Does this mean we’ll definitely win? Absolutely not but we shouldn’t be going into this game with any fear. Ireland are where they are in the group for a reason. Notwithstanding the doing they gave us (when we were burst after going out of the World Cup) they have done nothing in this group. If we play like we did on Wednesday we’ll win. I find it hard to ignore those three games, but. 😵 I'd rather think of the Celtic Park game for inspiration.

Prefer a more straightforward but 2-0 that way will do. Comfortable is not easily attained in football. That way, despite making the heart rate increase, will do fine at the end of 90 minutes yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised Adams isn’t starting but confident still. Great Gordon is there. Virtually guarantees one of the others being in the sticks midweek you’d think.

There is a possibility that if Gordon's wife has the baby tonight, he might just have time to make the Ukraine away game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo cop Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Hopefully Dykes can hold the ball up and get others into play, Adams maybe being kept for midweek game or second half sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but we’ll be relying on Finland and Iceland failing to win their final games I think. Hopefully we’ll get at least a point on Tuesday and we won’t need to worry about other results.

It would mean we have a better chance of winning our next Nations League group which might get us a World Cup playoff. I would still rather get promoted to be fair.
